OBAMA UTUBE 'BIRTH' VIDEO

I checked out the video where President Obama is supposed to confess to being born in Kenya. Honestly, YOU PEOPLE CAN NOT EVEN TELL A JOKE FROM THE TRUTH. The truth is that the video was originally a joke because most people thought that the idea that a person born in Hawaii was not a US citizen to be very funny.

Now someone has taken the joke video and posted it as the truth.

Added to this untrue video is the theory that even if President Obama was born in Hawaii, he was born in Hawaii before it became a state. Two minutes of research found that Hawaii became a state in 1959 and President Obama was born in 1961, which means that he was even conceived in a US state.

Are you so prejudiced against someone with a Kenyan father that you will believe anything?

Actually, all this started with a New York Times article pointing out that Senator McCain was born in Panama, and therefore may not be eligible to be President. Now that was actually an interesting legal argument.

There is are websites for urban rumors, just google urban rumors. There is also a political rumor website www.politifact.com.

JOKES ARE NOT THE TRUTH. Unfortunately, the truth seems to be that some people will believe anything other than the truth.
